Following their breaking news yesterday which announced that Vanessa Hudgens (Grease: Live!) would be headlining NBC's Powerless, a workplace comedy set in the DC Comics universe, TV Line is back today with information on a couple familiar faces that will be joining her. Those faces are Community alum Danny Pudi, Firefly's Alan Tudyk, and A to Z's Christina Kirk. They'll play supporting players to Hudgens' lead character 'Emily Locke,' an insurance claims adjuster who finds herself increasingly exasperated by the disruptive antics of the various superheroes that proliferate in her city.

Pudi is set to play Teddy, Locke's best friend & co-worker, and it sounds like he'll have a bit of The Office's Jim Halpert in him as he's being described as someone "who spends his days creating time-wasting pranks as a way to make their office, the “least Super place on earth,” just a little less 'unsuper.'" Tudyk will portray Emily's new boss Del, "who has just been promoted — not through any merit of his own, but because he’s the owner’s son." As for Kirk, she'll play Jackie, Locke's assistant, who is coincidentally a massive superhero fan.

So, what do you guys think of the latest additions? Sound off with your thoughts below!
